Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical professionals at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot. They devote an average of 10 years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to receive a Bachelors Degree, and the following four years in Medical School to attain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to typical medical school and in point of fact a number of podiatry programmes are contained within these schools. Upon securing a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another one to three years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have received wide-ranging medical instruction with an emphasis on problems pertaining to the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are trained to manage conditions ranging from common ailments for example, ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are a lot more obscure for example, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have significant surgical education which provide them the expertise necessary to carry out surgery on those complications that are best remedied through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors furthermore have a thorough practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs withstand as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Comprehending biomechanics and gait deviations permits a Foot doctor to create shoes and orthotics which can give pain relief and minimize the risk of a large number of complications which the feet generally encounter.
